For me it was these.

"A focused fool can accomplish more than a distracted genius"

"Until the lion learns to write, every story will glorify the hunter"

These two quotes really helped get my @** in gear.

That's a powerful thought.

Conditioning significantly influences our psyche.

These thoughts that are the result of conditioning are like knee jerk reactions.

Our brain is designed to conserve energy so it actually prioritises conditioned knee jerk reactions rather than introspective thoughts.

One needs significant amount of training to bypass this process.
